Infrastructure & Construction

Authorities and asset owners need to know what is being built, where, and whether it is allowed — across territories too large to inspect on the ground. Construction is small, dispersed, and constant, and the terrain context for earthworks and grading has historically required expensive surveys.

EarthToDate detects new construction directly from dated imagery, classifies land cover and built-up extent without training data, watches linear corridors for encroachment, and supplies a 1m BaseDEM accurate enough for cut-fill, grading, and drainage design — replacing episodic LiDAR for most planning work.

Together these give planning offices, registries, and infrastructure operators a continuous, jurisdiction-wide view of physical change, without flying or driving the whole area.
